Work backwards.

Start with z = 4.

Now deal with the middle equation

y + 3z = 11                    Substitute z = 4 and solve for y

y + 3(4) = 11                  Subtract 12 from both sides

y + 12 = 11

y + 12 - 12 = 11 -12         Combine terms on the left and right

y = - 1                             Now use the top equation for x

z = 4                              z still = 4

2x + 4(-1) +3(4) = 14

2x - 4 + 12 = 14              Solve 3z

2x + 8 = 14                     Subtract 8

2x + 8 - 8 = 14 - 8          Combine

2x = 6                            Divide by 2

x = 6/2

x = 3

Answer

x = 3

y = - 1

z = 4

<h3>Answer: 16 square units</h3>

Let x be the height of the parallelogram. Right now it's unknown, but we can solve for it using the pythagorean theorem. Focus on the right triangle. It has legs a = 3 and b = x, with hypotenuse c = 5

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + x^2 = 5^2

9 + x^2 = 25

x^2 = 25-9

x^2 = 16

x = sqrt(16)

x = 4

This is a 3-4-5 right triangle.

The height of the parallelogram is 4 units.

We have enough info to find the area of the parallelogram

Area of parallelogram = base*height

Area of parallelogram = 4*4

Area of parallelogram = 16 square units

Coincidentally, the base and height are the same, which isn't always going to be the case. The base is visually shown as the '4' in the diagram. The height is the dashed line, which also happens to be 4 units long.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Assignment: Find area of rectangle without triangle

Area of whole rectangle including triangle: 66 Feet

(6 * 11 = 66)

Area of Triangle: \bold{\frac{1}{2}Base \ \cdot \ Height }

Height: 3

Base: 6 (Solved by using this: (11 - 2 + 3))

Half of base: 3

3 * 3 = 9

66 - 9 = 57

Lines are in the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.  This line is thus y=9/4x-14, so C is correct.  Multiplying by four, we get 4y=9x-56.  Adding 56 and subtracting 4y, we see that 9x-4y=56, and multiplying by -1, we get 4y-9x=-56, so A is also correct.  At this point, it is clear that B and D are incorrect, so A and C only are correct.
